Challenge #12


This week's Challenge is brought to you from a great suggestion from Badr [Gr.3], who came up with the idea while sitting comfortably in a full-lotus position while waiting for the bus last week.

We all know that RIS students have some amazing skills and abilities. Many of you speak two or three languages. Many of you play more than one musical instrument. Many of you write beautiful poetry or are able to solve Math problems faster than your teacher! There is almost no end to the list of reasons why you are all awesome in more than one way.

But what is your special physical talent? What can you do that is weird or wonderful? Can you sit in the lotus position? Can you move your ears without touching them? Can you make your thumb bend back to touch your wrist? Can you lock your hands behind your back and bring them together over your head? Can you stand on one foot and lift your other foot over your head? Can you turn your tongue upside down? Can you clap your hands together more than 100 times in a minute? Can you bend backwards and touch your feet to your head? What can you do?

Show Mr. Smith your incredible physical talent before Friday at 12:37pm. He'll probably ask you a question or two about what you are doing. All students who exhibit their amazing or unique skill will be recognized here on Friday afternoon as a Uniquely Talented and Undoubtedly Amazingly Skilled Master of the Week. Good luck!
